CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Passed the Flag over to Stripped, he is a wonderful asset to the Equalizer.  Not only is he accountable at the workouts, he is also accountable to reach out to brothers that are needing help outside of the workouts.  I am grateful that the Equalizer is in good hands!

“Leadership is not about a title or a designation.  It’s about impact, influence,  and inspiration.”

MOLESKIN:
Was one of the most boring workouts I have put together but drawing the 2 for our 2 year anniversary was very important for me.  However it did turn into a pretty good beatdown, so I plan to use it again soon!

Part Deux of Comminication Tips:

  1. You’ve got two ears and one mouth.  Use them proportionately.
  2. Make sure you have stopped speaking before your audience has stopped listening.
  3. The most important thing in communication is to hear what isn’t being said.
  4. A lot of problems in the world would be solved if we talked to each other instead of about each other.
  5. The more often you say something, the better you get at saying it.
  6. Two monologues do not make a dialogue.
  7. Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something.
  8. The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.
  9. The one who asks the best questions wins.
  10. Whispers are often more powerful than screams.

MOLESKIN:
Jesus did not die on the cross so we could live comfortable, well adjusted lives.  His purpose is far deeper.  He wants to make us like himself before he takes us to heaven.  This is our greatest privilege, our immediate responsibility and our ultimate destiny.

Pray for Manilow and Boogaloo along with their families as they struggle through current circumstances

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
What is a “total” or “real” man? He is one who understands and accepts the responsibility for the development of his mental, emotional, and spiritual capacity and demonstrates this by his maturing attitude and actions in his personal life, his home life, his vocational life, his social life, and his spiritual life. – Charles Stanley – Man of God

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM: 

Communication-  from my mentor Dr. Michael McIntyre

  1. If someone doesn’t understand you, it’s not their fault — it’s yours.
  2. You can’t explain something you don’t understand, and you don’t understand something you can’t explain.
  3. Use the words your audience uses.
  4. Before you tell someone they’re wrong, tell them they might be right.
  5. The more interested you are, the more interesting you’ll be.
  6. The things you remember saying are different than the things others remember hearing from you.
  7. People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
  8. What you do speaks so loudly, I can’t hear what you’re saying.
  9. The tone is the message.
  10. Knowing when to stop talking is a skill.

MOLESKIN:
Prayers for Herbie and his struggles, and thanks for voicing them…we all have them.  Colonel’s aunt’s new foster kids and all like them need prayers and the struggle for the caregivers that work so hard to provide for them.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
No OYO’s this next week…all together work to help mentally grow us all.  I challenge everyone to keep trying to spread the Word of F3 and bring some more FNG’s to the fold.  Our iron has dulled and we need to be sharper
